ABSTRACT:
A storage rack assembly for storing articles such as audio and video cassettes, compact disc containers and records on shelves, cabinets and the like includes a rack formed of a base and U-shaped wires which form side supports, a base formed of elongated wires and mounting the U-shaped wires and cross-wires which form supports for the articles. A track slidably mounts the rack for sliding movement with the rack mountable on a shelf or in a cabinet. The rack and track are constructed to a size to conform to the particular articles. In a cassette and disc-container holder, the U-shaped wires are mounted at an oblique angle to each other so that the back legs of the wires form stops for the cassettes or disc containers which lie flat on the cross-wires with the cassettes or disc containers extending out from the front legs of the U-shaped wires. In a record album and storage rack, the U-shaped wires are mounted parallel to each other and the cross-wires have lips at the front portion thereof to retain the record albums in vertical orientation. Back retainer wires are provided at the upper and lower portions of the U-shaped wires to retain the records. A knockdown embodiment comprises U-shaped wires with laterally-extending feet which fit within channels in a base, which in turn is slidable within a track. The rack and the track can be mounted in an upright position or in an inverted position whereby the rack is suspended from the track. In the inverted position, article support wires are mounted to the lower portions of vertically oriented wires to support the cassettes or disc containers.
